Don Mills Ontario
Don Mills, Ontario. So I always wondered who "don mills" was, perhaps the developer of the city or something? Ive met some people named "don mills" so I had to find out. Turns out it was built by a development company called Don Mills road, which was called that because it ran along the river Don to these mills. Don river was named after the river Don in England, which was named after the Celtic Goddess Dôn. So Don Mills, the commercial juggernaut and clearing house capital of Canada, is a celtic goddess' enterprise. Sometimes I think we are actually travelling backwards through time so these ironic jokes can be written about our various enterprises. I wish it was named after Don Most though. Don Most Ontario sounds better.
